Chapter 18 This General Is Too Steady
The spies put the bloody men on their backs on the ground, and all the generals in the tent got their noses flushed by the smell of blood, and suddenly became sober.

Looking at the bloody man again, he had been stabbed several times, his arms were only arms, and he was already a corpse.

"Quickly, how is King Zuo Xian?" a general asked eagerly.

Seeing this situation, everyone knew that something had happened.

"I listened to the news in front, and found that the Han army was chasing with torches, and our soldiers fled in all directions."

"One person was rescued from all difficulties, and he was able to ask about the military situation, but he couldn't hold on halfway."

The spy raised his head, his eyes were filled with fear and grief, and he said in a trembling voice:
"The whole army was wiped out, King Zuo Xian... King Zuo Xian died in battle!"

"what?!"

There was a crackling sound in the tent, and the swords and soldiers smashed the wine jar and barbecued meat, and all fell to the ground.

All the generals were stunned and couldn't believe their ears.

"How could this be?"

"King Zuo Xian has [-] fine riders, and a beggar chariot to protect him. Even in the chaos of the army, he can still survive. How could he die in battle??!"

another general asked.

"Qiyan Che'er was smashed to death by the Han emperor with a chessboard before he went into battle!"

The spies were extremely sad and indignant, Donghu people respected martial arts and respected martial arts.

Among the eight nobles, whoever has the biggest fist and the highest status, even if Qiyan Che'er is not the strongest in Donghu, he can still be listed in the top ten, but he died without any performance.

The damn emperor of the Han Dynasty actually used a chessboard to sneak attack, despicable!

"Chess board? Is it the gold-threaded nanmu chess board that the Great Khan bestowed on King Zuo Xian last year?"

"exactly"

Now, even Zhang Huaiyang was shocked when he heard this:

"You can kill Qiyan Che'er with a chessboard, no wonder you dare to kill Yu Wenbai."

"The emperor of the Han family is more brave than Yu Wenbai himself."

The generals in the tent were silent, when Yang Zhong sent Yu Wenbai's head a few days ago, they passed it around and watched it for a long time.

Most of the Donghu generals are good at shooting, and they all sneered when they saw the arrow holes that almost penetrated the skull.

Since the old general of the big man resigned and went back to hiding, how many people today can shoot through their bones?

The emperor of the Han family wanted to regain a little face in this regard, but he was laughing and generous.

At that time, King Zuo Xian laughed very much, saying that the arrow hole is useless except to make the skull wine cup drink and leak.

Did not expect. It is true.

"King Zuo Xian also died under the arrows of Emperor Han, cutting off his hair and abandoning his crown, with dozens of arrows in his body!!"

The generals in the tent were worried for a while, dozens of arrows were shot in their bodies, the skull wine cup did not leak, but Zuo Xianwang did.

But it's them who are worse.

The good battle of the Southern Expedition and the Extermination of the Country, the first 20 years were all flat, and it was almost over, and the prince was gone.

This is good, no one has to worry about the master who will make great achievements after destroying the Han. Even if two Hans are killed, they may not be alive.

"Emperor Han actually killed our Xianwang Zuo, ignorant of current affairs, really hateful! We must avenge Zuo Xianwang!"

A general smashed the wine bowl angrily.

"Yes, send troops immediately, we must break through Qiongzhou City, kill all the Han troops, and bury King Zuoxian!"

Other generals also agreed.

Zhang Huaiyang shook his head: "No."

"What? General Zhang sees that Emperor Han is quite capable, and wants to vote for Han?"

A Donghu general was a little eccentric.

In his opinion, Zhang Huaiyang does have the possibility of being a traitor.

After losing King Zuo Xian, everyone couldn't find a good one.

And Zhang Huaiyang was originally a Han Chinese, he was skilled in bowing horses and had the ability of a general, and he had been in the Eastern Hu royal court for a long time, and he was familiar with the affairs of the Eastern Hu army.

At that time, I'm afraid that at least he will be the general of the four towns, and it is not impossible to be the second Yuwen worship of the big man.

"When is it, do you still want internal strife?"

Zhang Huaiyang is not an irritable person, but his calm words shocked everyone.

A general close to Zhang Huaiyang hurriedly eased the atmosphere:
"What advice does General Zhang have?"

Zhang Huaiyang breathed a sigh of relief: "The Han army won a big victory, and the momentum is like a rainbow."

"Emperor Han personally killed King Zuo Xian, and his reputation spread far and wide. He must take the opportunity to completely control the government. The Han court is temporarily monolithic."

"The Han army and our army fought in the field and successfully defended Qiongzhou City without affecting the people. A little bewitchment can make the people return."

"Although the big Han only owns Qiongzhou City, the entire Qiongzhou has only just been established for the second half of the year, and the popularity is still in the Han."

"There are also a lot of reactionary forces among the people. Once they hear the news of the Han army's victory, maybe someone will rise up to help."

"Our army's [-] soldiers and horses are all elite and fierce generals, but the Han army still has [-] battle-ready soldiers. If it is further forced to recruit, the number of battle-ready soldiers will not be much less than our army."

A Donghu general was in a hurry: "What do you think General Zhang should do?"

"If you don't attack the city, do you ask the royal court to add troops?"

"I have already lost King Zuo Xian. If I can't capture Qiongzhou City and destroy the big man, and the royal court needs to continue to add troops to support me, how should the ministries treat me?"

This is the thinking of most generals. If they wait for the support of soldiers and horses, wouldn't they be satisfied with their food?
Coupled with the crime of protecting Zuo Xianwang, even if he didn't get his head smashed, he would definitely be demoted in the future and stay away from the center of the royal court.

"Wai."

"Blocking."

Zhang Huaiyang only has two words:
"The army Chen Bing Qiongzhou City lured the Han army out of the city to fight. When it comes to field battles, the Han army is inferior to us."

"Send a small group of soldiers and horses to block the grain road."

Some people wondered: "Qiongzhou is a big grain-producing state, and Qiongzhou City is also rich."

"The big man was able to survive for 20 years by relying on the grain and grass in Qiongzhou. What's the use of blocking the grain road?"

Zhang Huaiyang pointed to the key point:
"There is not much grain stored in the granary in Qiongzhou City. Although there is a lot of grain production, most of it is in the hands of noble families."

A barbarian slapped his head fiercely:

"That's right, many places have been conquered in these years, and the state government's granaries don't have a lot of stock. Instead, it's those aristocratic families who have been wiped out, and I robbed them for several days."

Zhang Huaiyang clasped his hands together and continued:
"The Han army finished eating the stored grain, and because of the blockade of the grain road, they could not purchase grain and grass through other channels, so they had to forcefully requisition."

"Conscripting the people to save food will lose the hearts of the people."

"Conquer the family to store food, and lose the world."

The eyes of all the generals in the tent are bright, what a brilliant plan!
In the procrastination war, Donghu is invincible!After all, most of the world is in their hands!

If the Han army dared to move the common people or the aristocratic families, it happened that they had the opportunity to take Qiongzhou City together from inside and outside. Maybe some more radical aristocratic families would directly dedicate the city!
This kind of thing is not uncommon, and it is not easy to siege a city, especially in the East Hu army, which is dominated by cavalry, it is even more difficult.

But the Southern Expedition went smoothly, because many of the counties and cities that were conquered had the inner ghosts of these aristocratic families, and when the situation was not good, they took the initiative to offer the city.

In some places, the deep-rooted local prefects have more power than the sheriff!

"General Zhang acted steadily, I will bow down!"

The tension brought about by Zuo Xianwang's death in everyone's hearts was also relieved. No matter what, they were able to take Qiongzhou City safely and destroy the big man. After all, they have credit.
